What an incredibly special afternoon! On Saturday, May 16th, I had the absolute pleasure of hosting an Author’s Signing at the Barnes & Noble in Brick, NJ. Looking back at these photos, my heart is just so full.

Connecting with readers, hearing your stories, and sharing the journey of Karina in person always reminds me why I do this. Moments like these are truly unforgettable.

I want to send a massive thank you to Mike, the store manager, and his fabulous team at Barnes & Noble. Thank you for giving me the opportunity to connect with readers, for your wonderful support throughout the event, and for making the entire day feel so welcoming and memorable.

I also have to give a very special shoutout to my daughter, Tiffany. She stepped into the role of my official assistant for the day and filled in absolutely perfectly! We had so much fun together, and as it turns out, she is a fantastic photographer.

Here are some of the beautiful moments she captured from our time there. Thank you to everyone who stopped by to say hello—it meant the world to me.
